Partly granted
The Board denied service connection for bilateral hearing loss, a low back disability, a seizure disorder, and an acquired psychiatric disorder, but granted service connection for tinnitus.
The deciding factor: The evidence supported the grant of service connection for tinnitus due to in-service noise exposure, while other conditions were not shown to be related to military service or any presumptive conditions.
